I’ve made a fair amount of pizza in my cast iron, and it took some trial and error to get the pizza to not stick.

Either preheat the pan fully before adding the oil or fat and (carefully) drop in the dough, or use a generous amount of butter and shape the dough in a cold pan.

When spreading toppings, cheese along the edge is fine, but try not to get much sauce on the sides of the pan. That will burn and eat away at the seasoning more.

My pan doesn’t have great seasoning, though - I mostly just use it for pizza every other week or so.

The only thing I’ve heard you want to be mindful of is to bring the temp up a little slowly rather than just starting out at high temp (especially with induction, which heats up even faster). Too rapid of a temperature change can cause the pan to crack from thermal shock.

Not really, and no. This shouldn’t affect your already-running system. This change means that the iso will offer plasma by default and will run plasma in the live environment.

And I wouldn’t say it’s particularly hard to switch from any desktop environment to another. It takes some relearning where stuff is, keyboard shortcuts, etc, but any desktop environment can run any Linux program, provided the necessary libraries are installed (which your package manager takes care of). You can install kde programs on your xfce desktop, and they will run fine (and vice versa). They’ll just pull in a bunch of kde libraries when you install.

My spouse says that they LIKE the way I smell.

Did you know Kids in the Hall made a sketch about you?

The reason you get much, much looser attribution with people like Grubb or Schreier s that those connections would probably lose their jobs, and for the most part nobody wants that, often including the studios that employ those guys.

Oh, I’m not criticizing Grubb. I’m criticizing the GameSpot article quoting Grubb. I have no opinion on whether Grubb is right, and I certainly don’t expect him to give up sources. I don’t even know whether he has a specific source, or if he was just giving his (no doubt well-informed) opinion on the situation, because I haven’t watched the podcast.

This felt like reading a New York Times article that links to a Washington Post article about some news event, and the NYT article is quoting the WaPo author in the same way that they would quote a witness. It’s just bizarre to me.

It’s terrible journalism. If you skimmed past the first couple short paragraphs, the quotes from Jeff Grub (their “source”) read like he’s an insider at Aspyr or Embracer. In reality, the article is just linking to a 1.5 hour news podcast and quoting the host. The article doesn’t even try to summarize Jeff’s basis for his opinion, and the only quote they have from an actual insider is, essentially, “no comment.”

I haven’t seen it done that way, only the squeeze of lemon at the end.

What? Linux does use git for version control.

I haven’t had time to build up a big city, but so far I’ve enjoyed it. I’m running on Linux with a 5600X + 6600XT, and 1080p at medium gets me 30-40 fps.

I LOVE that roads transmit power and water. Money is way more available early game than in 1. The only annoyance for me so far has been the terrain overlay that comes up when you select a zoning tool (similar to how selecting water pipes switches to underground. You can make it go back to normal by hitting i after selecting the tool. It’s minor, but its an annoying difference from 1.

Plus, jokingly using fash shit tends to attract people who aren’t really joking but want plausible deniability.

To be clear, dmesg -w should be run before you do anything to cause the crash. It will continuously print kernel output until you press ctrl+c or the kernel crashes.

In my experience, a crashing kernel will usually print something before going unresponsive but before it can flush the log to disk.

If you have another pc, ssh from it to the problem machine and run sudo dmesg -w. That should show kernel messages as they are generated and won’t rely on them being written to disk.

Yep, it makes shaping to the pan easier (and safer), though I’m still working on getting a crispy crust with this method.

I used to proof it on the counter before dropping it into a hot, oiled pan, and that produces a great crispy bottom. This method is lazier, though, and with butter, the dough hasn’t stuck at all for me.

I’m using roughly this method, though with my own dough recipe.

I suspect my crust doesn’t come out as good because my oven has the heating element on top. The linked recipe suggests putting the pan on the bottom rack, which makes me think they assume a bottom heating element.

Butter is magic! (and I definitely didn’t skimp on it…)

There will be things to learn and unlearn, but modern Linux distros are fairly smooth sailing for basic tasks if your hardware supports Linux well. Laptop support is a little more spotty, where there may be issues with suspend, or the Wi-Fi needing 3rd party drivers, but desktops will probably work without much fuss (and there are plenty of laptops with no issues).

Gaming has been made much easier thanks to wine and proton, particularly valve’s contributions. For steam games, many of them will just work out of the box or after ticking a checkbox. ProtonDB is invaluable for quickly seeing how well a game will run on Linux.

But as you’ll see as you read some of the reports on ProtonDB, there will likely be a more troubleshooting than you’re used to on windows. As long as you know how to Google the name of your distro + the problem you’re seeing, you’ll usually find a solution.

You don’t need to be a terminal master to use Linux nowadays. But most things are easier to explain with terminal commands than with step by step gui instructions, so many guides online will have you use the terminal to some degree.

Honestly, the best advice I can give is just try it. If you have a spare drive (internal or usb), just go ahead and install Linux to it. If you want to be extra sure you won’t do anything to your existing windows install, remove the windows drive first (or disable it in bios). Then play around with things and see how it feels.

That does not surprise me lol. Made my wife’s day, though! She loves saganaki, and we can’t get it at any restaurant within at least 2 hours of us.

And yes, it was delicious. Tomorrow I’m going to have to make homemade pita to go with it. The pack I picked up at the store was very blah.

Made 2 loaves so far, and I’m a fan. Loaf slid out easily both times, and the bottom/sides of the crust had a nice crispness to them.

I hadn’t heard of petromax, that is a damn nice looking loaf pan!

I’ve got a 6600XT and have had zero issues with Ubuntu and Fedora.

The way my brain rationalizes it (inverted y, normal x) is that the closest analog to my hand on a mouse is my hand on top of my character’s head.

To make that head look up I pull my hand back, which is the same exact motion as pulling the mouse back. So it feels natural.

To make the head look left, I would rotate my hand counterclockwise. Rotating a mouse doesn’t do anything, so I have to translate that to lateral motion, and left to look left feels more natural.

Of course the real explanation is that the first mouselook games I played defaulted to inverted y and normal x, so that’s what I got used to. And even before mouselook became a thing, I was playing flight sims, which default to inverted y. Still, it’s fun to try to rationalize something that ultimately boils down muscle memory.

It’s good for at least 6 months in the fridge. It never goes that long unused by me, though. I make it in batches from 3 sticks at a time.
